ZEINER, Lukas
(b. 1450, Zürich, d. 1519, Zürich)

Arms of Hugo von Hohenlandenberg

c. 1500
Stained glass window
Victoria and Albert Museum, London

The technical and artistic brilliance of this stained glass panel shows Lukas Zeiner to be one of the most talented glass painters of the late Middle Ages. It shows the arms of Hugo von Hohenlandenberg, Bishop of Constance from 1496 to 1532, with angel supporters presenting his mitre and pastoral staff.
